ProbDistWeightedMLE
[this page | pdf | back links]
Function Description
Returns the weighted maximum likelihood estimation vector
for a given dataset for parameters of a probability distribution given by DistributionName
and with the order of parameter values matching the parameter names listed by MnProbDistParamNames).
The algorithm used starts from values for each parameter in
line with its value in OpeningParameterChoices and searches for the
(possibly just ‘nearest’) parameter selection that maximises the weighted (log)
likelihood function.
Probability distributions currently recognised by the
website may be listed using MnRecognisedProbDists.
